Strategies to get the best Beaufort, SC vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Beaufort, SC area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself.

• Upon arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.

• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to compel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback.
